Hedge End Community Speedwatch (CSW) - October 2022

Welcome to the CSW monthly update. Please see the attached for the background, explanatory information. 

Our recruitment posters are still down off the noticeboards as we are currently fully staffed with volunteers. I will be advising the parish councils as and when we will need to recruit again and the posters will then be back up. 

The representation of volunteers from the parishes break down as – 
Hedge End – 7, West End – 2, Botley – 3, Netley – 0, Bursledon – 0, Hamble – 2 and Out of area – 1, Total = 15.

The number of locations currently assessed are –
Hedge End – 7, West End – 1, Botley – 1 Netley – 5, Bursledon – 2, Hamble – 2.

If you want to suggest new locations – please bear in mind the limitations I have described in the attached information, but feel free to reply to me via Hampshire Alert with the ‘what 3 words’ location of the perceived speeding and I will add this to my list to check. Any suggested locations without a ‘what 3 words’ location will not be looked at. Anyone can access the ‘what 3 words’ website in order to pinpoint a location. www.what3words.com 

The following are the results from the OCTOBER road side sessions - 

Date	Start / Finish	Speeders / Total Cars	% Speeding & Max Speed
8/10/22	9.55 - 10.58	43 / 559	7% & 49

We have 13 sessions scheduled for Novemeber.

If you have any questions that relate to CSW in general, please email the central team on speedwatch@hampshire.police.uk

If you have any questions that relate to our specific CSW – please reply to me through Hampshire Alert – however please do bear in mind that I am sending this update to over 3000 residents, so I may not be able to reply to everyone – but I will try. Or what I may do, is include some of the answers to questions in the next update.

Please do recommend that your neighbours, friends and family sign up to Hampshire Alert – so they hear direct from the local NPT. www.hampshirealert.co.uk 

Many thanks to the CSW Team for your continued hard work and dedication to reducing speed in the community.
